XML Viewer for Java is a Java application that displays any well-formed XML document. You can traverse the document's hierarchy using the tree views, find out the attributes of a particular node in the hierarchy and view the source of the XML and associated DTD files. You can also view the source of a selected node in the XML source view and the definition of the node in the DTD source view.
- What can I do with the XML Viewer for Java?
The XML Viewer for Java allows you to view the hierarchy of any well-formed document. It also allows you to view the text corresponding to any node in the hierarchy and the text corresponding to the definition of the node.
- What are the platforms supported?
The components can be used on any platform supporting JDK1.1.5 or above and having swing 1.02 support.
Note:
Although the application runs on JDK1.2 (Java 2), changes in the look-and-feel do not take effect.
- What look-and-feel is supported by the application?
The Application populates the Look & Feel Menu with the installed look-and-feel of the Swing installation in your machine. The application has been tested with the default look-and-feel, namely: Metal, CDE/Motif and Windows.
- Why do the source views display data different from the actual source?
The XML Source View displays data different from the actual source for the following reasons:
- The XML Source view expands all entities by default.
- The XML Source view does not display the prolog xml version="1.0".
- The XML Source view does not display the Document Type Definition declaration.
The DTD Source View displays data different from the actual source for the following reasons:
- The DTD Source view combines the internal and external DTDs.
- The DTD Source view expands all parameter entities by default.
- The DTD Source view does not display the prolog xml encoding="US-ASCII".
If errors are encountered while parsing the XML Document, the Source views may display different data.
- Is it "100% Pure Java"?
Although not officially certified by Sun, the XML Viewer for Java has been written in 100% Pure Java.
